This makes us different and slightly more special than regular JSocs at other universities in the UK, however, you don't need to be both Jewish AND Israeli to join! Our society is a celebration of both Jewish and Israeli culture; cultures and traditions that we feel are quite inseperable. We offer members full use of our facilities which include the Jewish Common Room ("JCR") and adjoining Kosher Kitchen on campus and a brand new luxury Hillel house off campus. In the academic year 2006/7 JISoc members totalled just under 60, with a large proportion being everpresent at all events. Our diverse range of members include Undergraduate and Postgraduate students from Israel, various European countries and North West London (!) as well as University staff, Lecturers and students from Coventry University. We meet up at least twice a week at regular events such as BAGELunch and Yom HaShishi (Friday Night Dinner), at our infamous Israeli Movie and Poker nights and the pinnacle of our yearly calendar, the nationally renowned WARWICK SHABBATON! Our close ties with Birmingham JSoc and Rabbi Fishel Cohen ensure that no festival or significant date in the Hebrew calendar is left uncelebrated! (See our events section for more details). At Warwick you get the best of both worlds: an academic elite institution AND a thriving jewish student community.

So enjoy this 2008 Valentines day that's coming, because next year in 2009, it will be "13 Valentines", with a full moon to boot! I can only imagine how many people are going to stay home that weekend. I kind of like the idea of actually being alive while "13 Valentines" rolls around, I enjoy watching superstitious people fall all over themselves.

It is in essence the proverbial tree of knowledge. It's growth and inclusion of massive amounts of data is limitless, an expansive matrix of millions of documents, ideas, images, books, movies, music etc. As humans hunger and feast off instant access to information and content the matrix of data included on the web grows exponentially. It has come to a point in the growth of this vast array of content that there is really nothing that can't be found. The power of tools such as wikipedia, blogging and other innovations has only made this content more readily available to the public. The Green Pig Theory is in essence this very fact. Coined by Lev Kolobov and David D., the Green Pig Theory states that no matter what your thoughts are, most likely the very same thought or idea has already been placed in the web of knowledge or at the very moment you are thinking it most likely someone is doing the same. To test the theory take any random thought that comes to mind, an idea, a feeling, a concept (be selective about the keywords you use) and simply Google it. Mostly 99.9% of the time, no matter the subject matter, you are bound to find something germane to the topic you picked. In Lev and David's case, green pig happened to be the most random thought possible. One day in the office while both were deliberating on the mass complexity of the web, it became clear that their involvement in such a grand system is marvelous. The thought then turned to you can find virtually anything on the web and to prove them point a random example was brought up. Lev declared instantly "green pig"! This was followed by a web search which turned up hundreds of green pig links, images etc. For this reason the theory has in effect been branded - Green Pig Theory!

This request for creation has been reviewed. The reviewer comments appear below the article text.
Early life[edit]Sebastian was born in Monterey, California to Filipino parents and was raised in the Philippines. She became a professionally trained jazz and modern contemporary dancer by the age of 13. She was used to wowing audiences of over thousands yet it wasn't until the latter part of her teenage years that she recognized her vocal abilities. Encouraged by her teachers to embrace Performing Arts while attending Colegio San Agustin High School in the Philippines she became a member of the Cultural Centers' Girl's Choir in Manila and was soon walking out of local talent competitions with an arsenal of accolades. Years later she would move to the Bay Area and train under top vocal coach, Seth Riggs who had orchestrated vocal arrangements for musical legends Michael Jackson, Luther Vandross, Barbara Streisand, Enrique Iglesias, Natalie Cole and Quincy Jones. Sebastian studied at the illustrious Jazz School at Berkeley, California. Renee holds a Bachelor of Science degree in Computer Science with a minor in Mathematics from Saint Peter's College in Jersey City, New Jersey. She currently resides with her husband and kids in Danville, California. Music Career[edit]She emerged as a prolific, consistently engaging vocalist on the Bay Area R&B and Soul music scene in 2004 with her self-titled (but unreleased) debut album Reneessance. An elastic talent who moves effortlessly from glossy ballads to hip-hop inspired pop, Sebastian has established herself as a creative force on her own. Since the successful release of her hit single Deliciously Dangerous, which won a Billboard songwriting award, garnered radio adds nationwide and received acclaimed reviews from national trade publications, including an "R&B Pick of the Week" from Billboard magazine. She's a self-described "progressive artist" and creator of a popular New York City soul showcase series Blowout Lounge. Mrs. Sebastian (2008)[edit]Her sophomore album Mrs. Sebastian will be released in March 2008 and on it the songbird raises romance to new heights. The vocally challenging, “This Is Me” is an R&B, Hip-Hop blend with a soulful but urban edge that boasts a unique chorus while the ballad “Every Lesson,” is a mid-tempo track that explores life lessons. The emotive first single “These Are The Signs” is another playful mid-tempo jam about the distinction between “love” and “making love.” Surrounding herself with a team of multi-talented instrumentalists and producers including Keyon Harrold (50 Cent, Jay-Z), Hanan Rubinstein (Leela James), Raymond Angry (Christina Aguilera, Lauryn Hill, Joss Stone, Meshell N'degeocello) and Grammy Award winning Ralph Kearns, they all believed in Renee as a singer and wanted to contribute to the project. Collaborations[edit]She has shared the stage with notable artists Eric Roberson, Heavy, and PJ Morton. Discography[edit]

They were formed in 1936 and continued to compete until 1954. They were Scottish Champions in 1937-38 and 1946-47. The team played at Perth's old ice rink, located on Dunkeld Road next to Muirton Park (the previous home of the football team St Johnstone). The site is now home to an Asda supermarket and a McDonalds fast food outlet. Perth Panthers (2000-2002)[edit]A new team bearing the Perth Panthers name competed in the Scottish National League from 2000 to 2002. Dewars Rink in Perth was built as a square rink to host curling events rather than ice hockey so the team played their home games at Dundee Ice Arena.

F-14 Tomcat (pinball)

This request for creation has been reviewed. The reviewer comments appear below the article text.
If you want to make changes and try again, copy and paste your article into a new submission and make your changes there.
Theme[edit]The theme of F-14 Tomcat is consistent with the contemporary cultural underpinnings of the Cold War era, in that the player controls the titular fighter jet, one of the most well-known and popular airships of the era, in battles against a fictional Soviet commander named General Yagov. (Ritchie, incidentally, provided the voice for Yagov as he taunts the player and screams in agony when the player defeats him (through the completion of certain game targets and goals.) Design Overview[edit]F-14 Tomcat, like Ritchie's previous hit High Speed, is an extremely fast-playing game, attributable in large part to the machines's largely symmetrical playfield design and the abundance of stand-up targets (which maintain much of the ball's speed, as opposed to drop targets which slow the ball down.) There are only two shots that "stop" the ball in F-14 Tomcat, and one of them (the left kicker) subsequently propels the ball at extremely high velocity back toward the lower flippers. In a departure from pinball conventions of the time, F-14 Tomcat contains only one pop bumper near the top of the playfield (most machines of the era contained a bank of at least three.) This bumper was strategically placed between the two upper flippers which provided an element of chance when the player attempted to hit the T-O-M and C-A-T standup targets on the top banks. F-14 Tomcat is also one of the last modern pinball machines to lack a conventional ramp shot (perhaps an ironic twist given the "flight"-oriented nature of the theme.) In place of ramps, the game contains an intricate series of habitrails that use diverters to feed the ball to various lock locations (one on the far right side of the playfield, and two others in a holding area in the center of the playfield.) The plunger launch will feed one of these three lock areas, and if the lock is not lit, a ball will be ejected from the center holding area to the inner loop at the upper-side of the playfield which surrounds the top target banks. All balls will be ejected from these locations when 4-ball multiball is activated by the player. The habitrail network can also be fed via a vertical up-kicker which is located at the end of the far right lane (known as the "launch" lane.) From a design standpoint, F-14 Tomcat seems to borrow equal parts from the high-octane, flow-oriented nature of Ritchie's High Speed with the dual-layered, four-flipper target based gameplay of Ritchie's 1980 classic Black Knight. Unlike Black Knight, however, F-14 Tomcat does not have a multi-tiered playfield, which would likely have slowed the game down and interfered with its flow. Rules[edit]The basic goal of F-14 Tomcat is to kill General Yagov, which can be accomplished by first downing all of his wingmen's planes. To score kills, the player can either shoot the left lane to the Yagov kicker, or shoot one of the two center targets on the lower side of the ball after the kill targets are lit via either the left or right inlane. Progress on kills are indicated by a series of lights above the flipper that move from Alpha, Bravo, Charlie, Delta, Echo, and Golf. When all kills have been scored, the player can shoot the Yagov kicker to defeat him, scoring an extra ball. An additional and highly lucrative goal is to score Fighter Jackpots, which can only be obtained in the game's multiball mode. To achieve multiball, the player must activate the locks by hitting targets corresponding to each letter in T-O-M-C-A-T. There are four target banks at which this can be done; two in close proximity on the upper playfield on opposite sides of the upper flippers and the pop bumper, a T-O-M bank of targets on the middle left side of the playfield, and a C-A-T bank on the middle right side. The lower banks can be hit from the lower flippers. If a letter is spotted on either the lower or upper banks, it is also spotted on the corresponding letter elsewhere on the playfield. Once locks are lit, they can be activated by shooting the "launch" lane (the right lane), where the VUK sends the ball(s) into the various lock locations via the habitrail network. When three balls are locked, T-O-M-C-A-T must be spelled again to light the "Release" function, also at the right VUK. Shooting the launch pad when release is lit causes four-ball multiball to start. The primary goal during multi-ball is to shoot the launch pad to score "landings." When three landings are completed, the Fighter Jackpot (usually around 700,000 points) is awarded. Repeated jackpots can be earned as long as at least two balls are in play. Spelling T-O-M-C-A-T during multiball lights the extra ball at the Yagov Kicker. F-14 Tomcat also contains the Steve Ritchie trademark left-outlane kickback feature (titled "Rescue" in this game), which is lit at the start of each ball and can be re-lit by shooting one of the two center targets (which are alternately lit to re-activate "Rescue." To advance the bonus multiplier, the player must hit a lit 1-6 target (along the sides of the center ball holder) to light the "Flyby" (inner orbit near upper flippers), and then shoot the "Flyby" shot to advance the multiplier up to 8X. With the bonus fully maxed out at 8X multiplier, the end-of-ball bonus can exceed 1,000,000 points.
Similarities to Other Machines[edit]F-14 Tomcat contains numerous design similarities to other machines designed by Steve Ritchie. Most notably, the process of achieving multiball (by spelling T-O-M-C-A-T and locking balls) is very similar to Ritchie's 1986 High Speed. The Fighter Jackpot is similar to the Getaway Jackpot in high speed, although the launch pad must be hit three times to award it, as opposed to the one ramp shot needed for the Getaway Jackpot in High Speed. This is probably due to the fact that the ramp shot in High Speed is more difficult than the launch pad shot in F-14. The 1-6 targets are also present in both games. In addition, the four-flipper layout resembles Ritchie's Black Knight and Black Knight 2000 games, although F-14 has more symmetry to increase game speed and flow, and there is no multi-tiered upper playfield like those found in the Black Knight games. New Features[edit]F-14 Tomcat contained two features never previously seen on pinball machines at the time. The Yagov Kicker, which sends balls at high velocity back toward the flippers, was unprecedented in its concept and design and has only been seen again once (the Raptor kickout in Data East's 1993 machine Jurassic Park.) The concept of the Yagov kicker also led to the introduction of the "Flight Insurance" feature, which was the first "ball-saver" in modern pinball history. It was likely included as a safeguard against the possibility that a misadjusted Yagov kicker could send the ball directly between the lower flippers, unfairly ending the ball prematurely for the player. Ball-savers of various sorts subsequently became widespread in future pinball machines, often lit at the start of a ball to prevent new players from becoming unduly discouraged. By default, however, F-14's "Flight Insurance" ball-saver was not activated at the start of each ball; it only activated when the Yagov kicker is hit or for the first few seconds of the multiball sequence.
Miscellaneous[edit]It is likely that the success of the blockbuster 1986 film Top Gun, which featured Tom Cruise as an ace F-14 Tomcat pilot, provided at least some of Ritchie's inspiration for this theme, given the proximity of the film's release and the introduction of the F-14 pinball machine. At the time, Williams did not purchase film license for pinball tie-ins, so they most often created original themes even when the concept was inspired by a commercial property. Steve Ritchie's own 1978 Stellar Wars is an example of this phenomenon, as George Lucas was unwilling at the time to license the Star Wars name for a pinball machine. Incidentally, Steve Ritchie would go on to design Williams' first film licensed pinball machine, Terminator 2: Judgment Day in 1991, and his two final Williams machines, Star Trek: The Next Generation (1993) and No Fear: Dangerous Sports were both licensed games. A video version of F-14 Tomcat was included in the launch pack of GlobalVR's Ultrapin video pinball machine in 2006.

He has assisted world-reknowned artists including Afro Celotto and Marvin Lipofskly in creating their work. About his work[edit]Patchen's series include forms titled Resistenza, Foglio and Parabola, which are created in either complex murrine or the simpler mixed cane and murrine.
